Your only options is to either buy yourself a programmer, or if you got a friend who has a working chip hot swap it with his chip after he boots his xbox up with the chip and then reprogram it

I'm answering the question under the assumption that "wrong BIOS" means you've got a 1.6 and flashed a 1.0-1.5 BIOS, or vice versa.

Do you have a friend with a modded Xbox that is a version compatible with the BIOS you flashed? If so you don't need to do a hot swap. Just swap your chip into their box and boot it. Then flash on the right BIOS for your box, which would be the wrong one for their box but it's OK since it's your chip. After the flash reinstall the chip in your box and it should work fine. I actually rescued a friend's goof in my early days on the forums - http://teamxecuter.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11353

If that's not what was meant by "wrong BIOS" then my answer is of no use in this thread.

thanks

thanks for the info... I didnt do enough research before trying to flash the bios..... I messed it up pretty bad, but I couldnt find a tutorial with how to flash the bios correctly. looks like i have to buy a programer.....I have a friend who says he could make a programer that worked with it, if i could find a schematic for the 2.6ce and the programer that you can buy for it. dont suppose anyone here knows where i can find those, hmm?

Just buy a programmer.

There is a link to a tutorial for flashing your bios on team excuter's home page. It also says the latest bios for the X2.

Actually, it says the 2nd most recent BIOS for the X2... frontpage still lists 5032 but current is 5035. Short of just posting a thread into the forums that Xecuter is active in (which I think would be rude) I don't know how to get word to him to update it.
